Blue Devil volleyball sweeps Northern for their first victory of the season.

It took a total team effort for the Greencastle volleyball team as they rolled to their first win of the season sweeping Northern 25-8, 25-18 and 25-19 on Saturday.  Offensively, the Blue Devils were led by sophomore Baylee Schaeffer with 9 kills, junior Rachel Verhoef with 8 kills and senior Keri Gearhart (pictured above) with 7.  Verhoef added 3 service aces for Greencastle.

With the win, Greencastle improves their record to 1-2 on the season.  “We knew going into this week that this was going to be a tough first week,” said Blue Devil head coach Corry Eagler.  “Now we can head into next week with a lot more confidence,” Eagler said.

On the defensive side the Blue Devils were led by Gearhart and senior Madee Goodwin each with 11 digs.  Sophomore Kylie Cunningham recorded 9 digs while junior Brianne Lugar added another 6.

Up next for the Greencastle girls is a trip Tuesday to face Mechanicsburg.
